With UA and ASU collections completed, CMF SoCal has received a ton of great films ready for judging, screening, and most importantly, awards! The University of Arizona will be hosting their Finale on Friday, October 1st, while ASU is letting the anticipation build until their finale night on October 25th.

Campus MovieFest (CMF) is the premier outlet for the next generation of filmmakers. CMF began nearly ten years ago when four students at Emory University provided students with everything they needed -- including camcorders and Apple laptops -- to make movies in one week. Since then, more than 250,000 students have told their stories on the big screen, receiving all the necessary technology and training for free thanks to corporate partners and schools.

During this year's tour, 100,000 students will participate in over fifty events, earning $400,000 in prizes and the chance to see their movies on the big screen at school red carpet finales and one huge year-end International Grand Finale, in addition to showcases on AT&T phones and in-flight on Virgin America. Additional information and thousands of CMF films are available online at campusmoviefest.com.

The events offer global exposure to students thanks to partners including AT&T, Apple, and Virgin America, as well as media coverage from The Today Show to ABC World News Tonight to CNN. The phenomenon shows no sign of slowing either - as long as students have a story to tell, CMF will be there to bring their tales to the world.
